Walgreens offers free flu shots to the uninsured

Walgreens is offering vouchers for free flu shots starting Friday, Dec. 9. The vouchers are available only to those without medical insurance. Walgreens spokesman Robert Elfinger said that 15,000 vouchers will be available to residents in the Twin Cities, Omaha, Des Moines and Sioux Falls, but could not confirm the number of vouchers in

the Twin Cities.

Only the following 24 hour locations will be offering the free shots. The voucher entitles a recipient to get a shot immediately if desired or a person can return at a later time.

"Women of the flats stood guard over their thresholds while police attempted to eject them for failure to pay rent on the grounds on which the dwellings stand. A near-riot was halted when a second court order was served on police, ordering a stay of the ejections."
